"FERMENTÆ features the solo project of audiovisual-surrealist KEVIN GAN YUEN, who is also one-third of San Francisco's celebrated blackened noise trio SUTEKH HEXEN.
"Glossolalia," in some respects, illuminates the underside of nature-inspired dark ambient with passages manipulating foreboding, discordant overtones. Culturally, the glossolalic denotes an act synonymous with the phenomenon of purportedly speaking in tongues, which, in turn, constructs a new mode of articulating thoughts by uttering words rooted in an unknown language.
Disclosing sonic, yet speech-like syllables exercised in a ritualistic context, FERMENTÆ "Glossolalia" inculcates an idea of language that reintroduces the threat and allure of the magical.
MT02: FERMENTÆ "Glossolalia" CS

Release Date: March 22, 2012
Edition limited to 100 black shell high-bias, ink-imprinted chrome cassettes. This cassette will be made available for PRE-ORDER in late March 2012.
